Yeah.  Someday, you and a buddy who works at your company, which may have
several copies of some dongle protected software, will likely have a problem.
In order to make a deadline for work for a meeting the following day, you
both take home a disk and a dongle.  You'll be several miles up the Cache
La Poudre before you discover that you wrangled the wrong dang dongle!
